Ahmotorsport Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Nothing says I love you more than a k and n filter! the sad story is it is a just a arfilter and nothing more no gaining some extra power Thanks for your input. I'm glad there's someone here familiar with the intake charactaristics of the Audi i5 turbo motors Chuckling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 Yes, i'm sure on the Audi forum they'll tell you what you want to hear. Another You two will come in handy should I ever decide that I actually do want more power Not sure where I've said that's what this air filter is for though.

Stu Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 So if you're not after more power, why mention "intake characteristics of the Audi i5 turbo motors"? What characteristics were you talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I assume he does, rather than just making a lazy blanket statement that k&n filters will be of no benifit to any car in the world over stock filters.

I found my cone freed up the throttle response if nothing else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
